Who knows computer stuff?

my computer goes into sleep mode when i leave it on too long. When i go to start it up in the morning, it lags so bad the mouse barley moves and it takes like 10min to press restart. I unplug the internet and it helps a bit. But after it restarts its totally fine? Iv had a fatal error screen pop up before but it just restarts itself and its fine.

I did buy a new graphics card not long ago. Could that be something?

I have found most PCs (esp Windows machines) slow up over time. I honestly think much software is bloated with not needed doodads AND do not handle closing out used memory (RAM) very well in the programming. Sloppy.

You could do Ctrl-Alt-Del and select the Task Manager to see which apps are sucking CPU and RAM.

Do you have anti virus software installed? It sounds like it has been hijacked and is running stuff in the background. The nuclear approach would be to save data and reset to factory-- esp if a windows PC.

@Neoerectus it scans automatically. Nothing pops up

Needs coffee....

Aside from turning it off when done with it- maybe check "Tom's Hardware" or other bulletinn boards

Just send me an e-transfer for $50000 and give me full access to your computer. I’ll fix it
